Creating a Rookgaard map. What is your idea?

[johandexter]

So i was just wondering what you guys would think of a rookgaard map that is remapped. A map where we have casual mid exp rate, remapped with houses in town and shops.
The underground rat cave/troll cave/orc cave/wasp area switched out with other monsters such as dragons,hero,dls,rotworms etc.
So basically uppdating rookgaard so it's like a normal map with quests etc. Changing out the "spike Sword quest" to something like magic sword quest or copper shield quest to something else.

Do you guys think people would play on such a map? or is it to much? What is your view on this.

I have always wanted to play on a server with a modified Rookguard map. (With vocations and stuff).
I think I have seen some projects do it before without much success tho.

But I think it is pretty suitable for an OT server. The smaller map makes it easier to update for content creators, it would run on weaker servers, it would fit smaller communities better. (30 players online on a full cipsoft map = you never see anyone).

It looks really good, but have you added new spawns/quests and renewing existing rat spawns.. But do you guys think this kind of a server would work?. You can basically add new spawns but the bigger the server gets the more spawns you create.

I personally like cities that are smaller and look more crowded then huge cities that you barley see people in.
For example Tibia map today is huge but people barley visit Ab dendriel,carlin,venore. '
It is the same in ot maps people are only in one area which is Thais.
What is your view on this can this type of server be pulled off?

the reason for that is because tibia is no where near as popular as it once was unfortunately. but back in 7.4 when i first joined tibia almost every city at the time was crowded

that too. But how can people not get sick and tired of all the Rl map. I want something new. Would you think this idea would work?

Me personally I'm tired of rl map servers even if its customized for new details it still real maps design. I prefer a new custom map

 

[johandexter]

So a new designed rookgaard then? It isn't exactly a rl map but its not either 100% custom either. Would you imagine people playing on such a map?

I see that ya put a lot of effort in here, but it looks a little too busy. There's just so much different stuff going on all over the place idk. Doesn't look too bad tho and I'd def play

Furthermore you talked about the nostalgic feeling of 7.4, i created a similar post on the "chit chat" side since i didn't exactly know where to post this. Another guy there also pointed out that this idea would most likely work on a 7.6 map.
Lets say hypothetically i was to start a ot like this.

Would you want to see a old school rookgaard remapped or a 8.6+ rookgaard remaped.
A newer rookgaard has ofcourse more room for better monsters quests etc
